Female suicide bombers kill themselves and 2 bystanders in Borno

Two female suicide bombers believed to be in their late 20s killed themselves and two others in Ngamdu village in Kaga LGA of Borno state today. According to reports, the women, dressed in Hijabs with the bombs strapped under their clothes, boarded a bus in the village with the intention of blowing themselves up and killing all the passengers in the bus.

Luck however ran out on them after the bus driver suspected their movements and asked them to come down from his bus. Moments after all the passengers from the bus came down, the bomb on the women exploded killing just the two women and two other bystanders.

Yesterday, transgender woman Padge-Victoria Windslowe who is facing trial over the death of Nigerian dancer Claudia Aderotimi after a botched cosmetic surgery, told the court she couldn't be blamed for Claudia's death because she was good at her job and had many high profile clients, including Amber Rose. The woman swore under oath that Amber started receiving injections from her before she became famous and
continued until two days before the 2011 death of Claudia.

Under cross-examination, Padge-Victoria (pictured right) said that Kanye West dropped off Amber at her clinic for
one procedure when they were dating. She also claimed she was supposed to
perform a "correction" on Nicki Minaj that never happened.

Make it a date this Sunday, 1st March 2015 at G12 Bar/lounge, Oniru Private beach, Victoria Island. Our Seaside Finest DJs; DJ Prince, DJ OWNGA and DJ Neo will be in the building for non-stop music! Jamming and delivering unparalleled thrill to remember.

Amber Rose took to twitter yesterday to shade her ex, Wiz Khalifa after
he released photos from the birthday party he finally had for
his son. He'd initially planned a party for the boy but told fans Sebastian was missing at the party. People naturally assumed Amber refused to let Wiz have the boy.

Now Amber says she's going to be keeping her son's pictures off social
media because she doesn't want him involved in messy fake stories. Can she stop the boy's father from posting his pics online?

E! Confirms Kelly Osbourne's exit from Fashion Police

Happy to hear this! I hope she was sacked and not that she left on her own. When you throw your colleagues under the bus, you don't deserve to seat next to them. I'm sure late Joan Rivers will be so disappointed that this happened. Anyway, E! last night released an official
statement announcing her exit from the show. See below...

"Kelly Osbourne is departing E!s Fashion Police to pursue other
opportunities, and we would like to thank her for her many contributions
to the series over the past five years, during which time the show became a hit with viewers. Fashion Police will return, as scheduled, on Mon, March 30, at 9 p.m. and no decisions have been made on her replacement."

Etcetera comes for celebs in new article, says they own N200m homes in their dreams..lol

Etcetera is relentless. No matter how many times he's slammed by celebs, he still comes for them. This time around he came for Oritsefemi and his N200m new home which he says he owns in his dreams..lol. He also came for Iyanya, D'banj, and Wizkid and their multi million Naira Lekki homes that don't exist. This Etcetera eh..lol. Read below...

Again, I’m going to go out on a limb here
to talk on a subject that may not be very popular or nice to Nigerian
celebs, especially the guilty ones. I have said it severally that just
because someone is a celebrity doesn’t mean they are smart. They may
have a talent or skill but many of them are not smart especially when it
involves their finances. The old saying, “your lies will come back to
haunt you” has never been more true than the recent cases of D’banj,
Iyanya and Wizkid who are being kicked out of their homes after lying
they owned the properties.

Thief returns Lupita's Oscar dress, says the so called pearls were a worthless fake

LMAO. So Lupita's $150,000 dress was just a big Hollywood fat lie? *sigh*.
According to TMZ, Lupita Nyong'o's Oscar gown was returned to The London
West Hollywood hotel where it was taken from. There's a twist however.
The thief called TMZ to tell them where it could be found as the Calvin
Klein dress allegedly worth $150K, was a worthless fake.

The thief called saying he had taken the dress from Lupita's hotel room after he
noticed the door was ajar. He and others took two pearls off of the dress
and took them to the garment district in downtown L.A where he was told they
were fake. Lol. Pic of the dress after it was found above. Continue...

Osinbajo planning to hand over to Tinubu - Femi Fani-Kayode

At a press briefing in Abuja today, the spokesperson of the PDP Presidential campaign organization PDPPCO, Femi Fani-Kayode alleged that a Chieftain of the APC, Bola Tinubu has compelled the Vice Presidential candidate of the APC, Prof Osinbajo to swear to an oath that he would resign as Vice President six months after inauguration (if their party wins) so that he can scheme his way into power if Gen Buhari dies in office. What he said below...

“The PDPPCO wishes to use this forum to expose the ungodly plan by Tinubu to seize the presidency of Nigeria by subterfuge. The real reason Tinubu nominated Osinbajo has been made known to us and we hereby offer a public service to the Nigerian people by drawing national attention to it. Tinubu wanted to be running mate to Buhari in spite of the nationwide resentment for Muslim-Muslim ticket that he and Buhari planned to foist on their party men and women. But when he and Buhari could not push through the agenda within the APC, he (Tinubu), after being given the opportunity to nominate a vice presidential candidate, he decided to prop up his stooge in the person of Prof Osinbajo.

Khloe Kardashian talks about her weight-loss journey, shares pic

Khloe Kardashian took to instagram to talk about and share
pics from the weight-loss journey she's undertaking. Seems to be working
well for her. She wrote;

"Looking back at pictures of myself I didn't realize at the time how
unhealthy my lifestyle actually was. People love to call me the fat one
but as weird as it sounds I still don't think I would consider myself
fat back then. Definitely overweight and unhealthy, yes. About two years
ago I decided to turn to fitness as a form of therapy and as a stress
reliever. I started slow and eventually I started working out 4 to 5
days a week. We all have to start somewhere and doing something is
better than nothing at all. Start small so you don't get discouraged and
give up. Remember it is all about consistency.
